Terminal device, program, and communication control method

Abstract

A terminal device includes a wireless communication unit that performs a wireless connection to an electronic device, and a processing unit that performs communication control of the wireless communication unit. The electronic device is capable of activating a first internal access point of a first connection method or a second internal access point of a second connection method different from the first connection method. The processing unit performs a communication connection to the first internal access point based on first connection information of the first internal access point when the first connection information is received from the electronic device. The processing unit performs notification processing when second connection information of the second internal access point is received from the electronic device.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A terminal device comprising:
 a wireless communication unit configured to perform a wireless connection to an electronic device; and 
 a processing unit configured to perform communication control of the wireless communication unit, wherein 
 the electronic device is configured to:
 activate a first internal access point of a first connection method or a second internal access point of a second connection method different from the first connection method, and 
 
 the processing unit is configured to:
 perform a communication connection to the first internal access point based on first connection information of the first internal access point when the first connection information is received from the electronic device, and 
 perform notification processing when second connection information of the second internal access point is received from the electronic device. 
 
 
     
     
       2. The terminal device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the notification processing is processing of prompting a connection method of the electronic device to be changed to the first connection method. 
 
     
     
       3. The terminal device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the processing unit is configured to:
 perform second notification processing of notifying a successful connection when the communication connection to the first internal access point is performed based on the first connection information received from the electronic device, after performing first notification processing that is the notification processing. 
 
 
     
     
       4. The terminal device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the processing unit is configured to:
 transmit connection information of an external access point to the electronic device by wireless communication of the first connection method after performing the communication connection to the first internal access point. 
 
 
     
     
       5. The terminal device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the processing unit is configured to:
 perform the communication connection to the first internal access point based on the first connection information when the first connection information is received from the electronic device, after performing the notification processing, and transmit connection information of an external access point to the electronic device by wireless communication of the first connection method after performing the communication connection to the first internal access point. 
 
 
     
     
       6. The terminal device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the first connection information includes a first identifier of the first internal access point, 
 the second connection information includes a second identifier of the second internal access point, and 
 the processing unit is configured to:
 perform search processing of searching for the first identifier and the second identifier. 
 
 
     
     
       7. The terminal device according to  claim 6 , wherein
 the processing unit is configured to:
 perform the communication connection to the first internal access point based on the first connection information when the first identifier is found in the search processing, and 
 perform the notification processing when the second identifier is found in the search processing. 
 
 
     
     
       8. The terminal device according to  claim 6 , wherein
 the processing unit is configured to:
 perform the notification processing even before a time out of the search processing when the second identifier is found in the search processing. 
 
 
     
     
       9. The terminal device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the notification processing is processing of notifying that the second connection information was received. 
 
     
     
       10. The terminal device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the first connection method is Wi-Fi Direct, and 
 the second connection method is a connection method different from the Wi-Fi Direct. 
 
     
     
       11. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program, the program controlling a wireless connection to an electronic device that is configured to activate a first internal access point of a first connection method or a second internal access point of a second connection method different from the first connection method, and causing a computer to:
 perform a communication connection to the first internal access point based on first connection information of the first internal access point when the first connection information is received from the electronic device, and 
 perform notification processing when second connection information of the second internal access point is received from the electronic device. 
 
     
     
       12. A communication control method for controlling a wireless connection to an electronic device that is configured to activate a first internal access point of a first connection method or a second internal access point of a second connection method different from the first connection method, the communication control method comprising:
 performing a communication connection to the first internal access point based on first connection information of the first internal access point when the first connection information is received from the electronic device; and 
 performing notification processing when second connection information of the second internal access point is received from the electronic device.
